If you are going to go to diesel mechanic school, I would go with the diesel. Red

That sounds pretty logical, but if you are like me, who only puts maybe 8k miles a year on his truck, and never tows more than 3000 lbs. it's tough to justify the extra $$$ a diesel costs.
If you can afford one and just want one, or tow a lot, especially going to diesel school, get one. If money is an issue and you don't tow heavy and don't put more than at least 15k miles a year on one, then it probably isn't necessary,...

If you can afford it, and wants gobs of power. Then the C is your choice. No questions asked.
